Three Little Pigs house challenge

 In our Preschool 3 class this week they were learning about fairy tales and tall tales.  Ms Isis, the PS 3 lead educator, divided the students at tables so they could try building their own versions of The Three Little Pigs houses using, sticks, straws and bricks(legos).  Each table worked on building the sturdiest version of each house so when Ms Isis came by to "blow their house down" it was either going to stay up or fall down. The students at the table with sticks had a house made of not only sticks but tape as well, the house made of straw included both tape and some yarn and finally the brick table used legos to make sure their house wasn't going anywhere.   The houses built by the students stayed up despite the effort of Ms Isis to blow each one down and everyone lived happily ever after!!
